Diabolus sidearm charge blaster can shoot through the wall ?!
Hello,

Diabolus mech has two weapon, the main gun which is the Hellfire canon and a sidearm (a small charge blaster on his top).

During a fight in my game, the Diabolus get closer to my killbox (with my colonist ready) and i've noticed that he can shoot through walls with his charge blaster gun.

Especially, if you have a pawn on a 90mm cannon or any turret, he can litteraly one-shot him

I've noticed his incredibly weapon handling stats :

Is it intentional or it's a bug ? I've tried game with only CE enabled as a mod and after some test : i confirm that the Diabolus can do that if CE is enabled so i guess it's coming from that ?

Anyone has the same issue ?
Thanks

I've observed the same thing. I think it's because the mech is actually taller than the wall, and due to CE's height-based cover system it means it's just shooting over the top. So if your pawns are behind full-height cover (i.e. a wall) they can't be shot.

does your killbox have diagonal walls? i managed to fix or significantly reduce it by doubling the thickness of the walls. I.e. rather than having the walls connected by only one corner
